Brand note

Dermalogica is a professional-grade skincare brand that leans into gentle-but-effective exfoliation and targeted treatments, often recommended by estheticians and makeup artists for prepping skin before makeup. The Daily Microfoliant is the standout here — a rice-based powder that turns into a creamy foam with fine grit, effective enough to smooth texture but mild enough for daily use if you're not layering strong actives.
